The directoral debut of respected cinematographer Ellen Kuras, it's a film with remarkable scope, using footage collected over 23 years to tell the story of a family forced to flee Laos after the United States withdrew from the region. And it's a hell of a story, a multilayered narrative that is lovely and heartbreaking and edifying and shameful all at once.

Currently, there are no plans for a full theatrical run in New Orleans, and tonight's screening is a one-night-only affair, so you should see it while you've got a chance.
